Stars' Thomas Harley: Scores game-winner in overtime
Rotowire
Harley scored the game-winning goal, fired three shots on net and blocked two shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Red Wings.
Harley had gone nine games without a goal, though he had six assists and a plus-6 rating in that span.

Stars' Thomas Harley: Earns pair of assists
Rotowire
Harley logged two assists, two shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Kraken.
Harley carried some momentum prior to the Olympic break, earning three goals and four assists over eight games before his stint with Team Canada.

The 24-year-old defenseman is at 25 points, 76 shots on net, 102 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 46 NHL outings, but he has plenty of upside based on his level of production over the previous two campaigns.

Stars' Thomas Harley: Two helpers against Czechia
Rotowire
Harley notched two assists in Canada's 5-0 win over Czechia in Olympic round-robin play Thursday.
The Stars blueliner had a hand in tallies by Bo Horvat in the second period and Nick Suzuki in the third. Harley isn't the top defenseman for Canada in the tournament and may not see much power-play time as a result -- that honor belongs to Cale Makar -- but the 24-year-old should still have a key role for one of the tournament favorites.

Rotowire
Harley scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Blues.
Harley ended a 16-game goal drought at a great time, scoring the decisive goal with 1:07 left in the third period. The 24-year-old defenseman has a pair of multi-point efforts over the last four games, so his offense may be starting to come around. He's up to three goals, 20 points, 63 shots on net, 94 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 41 outings this season, well behind the pace that earned him 50 points in 78 regular-season contests last year.

Stars' Thomas Harley: Will miss road trip
Rotowire
Harley (lower body) remains week-to-week and won't accompany the Stars on the team's four-game road trip, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports Wednesday.
Harley is mired in a 16-game goalless streak while chipping in a mere two helpers over his last nine outings. Further to the point, the 24-year-old defenseman failed to put a shot on net in three of his previous four outings. However, his nagging injury probably contributed to his offensive struggles.. With Ilya Lyubushkin (undisclosed) also not making the trip, the recently recalled Vladislav Kolyachonok should see plenty of minutes.

Stars' Thomas Harley: Sitting out Saturday, week-to-week
Rotowire
Harley won't play Saturday versus the Flyers, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports, and the team adds he is week-to-week with a lower-body injury.
Harley will miss some time due to the injury, which has seemingly been a problem for a bit now. The 24-year-old has just two assists over his last nine games following a hot start to the year.

Rotowire
Harley scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, blocked four shots and logged two PIM in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Avalanche.
Harley opened the scoring in the first period and set up a Jason Robertson tally in the second.

Stars' Thomas Harley: Dishes two helpers
Rotowire
Harley recorded two assists, five blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Jets.
Harley helped out on goals by Tyler Seguin and Wyatt Johnston early in the third period. The 24-year-old Harley is poised to be a fixture in the Stars' top four and should also feature on the power play. His offense could be limited if Miro Heiskanen gets the premium minutes, but Harley's talented enough and Dallas' lineup is deep enough that both blueliners should find success. Harley reached the 50-point mark in 78 regular-season outings in 2024-25, his second full campaign.

Stars' Thomas Harley: Notches power-play assist
Rotowire
Harley logged a power-play assist and six blocked shots in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Avalanche in Game 1.
Harley set up Roope Hintz's third-period tally. The 23-year-old Harley had 26 points and a plus-7 rating over 29 contests between the start of February and the end of the regular season. Harley will function as the Stars' top blueliner until Miro Heiskanen (knee) returns but will probably retain a heavy workload once Heiskanen is back in the lineup. With 50 points and a plus-32 rating in 78 regular-season outings, Harley can handle big minutes in all situations.
